    Sheath your weapons at your back or waist?

    How many of you guys would think it would be cool to be able to sheathe your weapons on your back instead of at your waist? (like a warrior dual wielding 2 handers)

    lol, first of you are aware that axes are being "hidden" on the back right? Icc ones anyway.

    And if you where to have 2 daggers on your back i'm pretty sure you'd look rather retarded

    As for sword, them being on the waist is just good looking.

    Fist would be ugly to have on both back and waist

    0_o ill be god damned i didnt realize thunderfury was one handed. as for fist weapons that would be ugly to have on ur back i guess, i suppose im kinda biased since i like 1 handed swords. was just a thought, would be kinda cool to have it as an option for people who like it with swords

    have you seen the daggers in this game? theyre huge.

    Waist, waist, waist, waist, WAIST!

    Fun fact, weapons were RARELY ever sheathed on the back back in the day, even for large, two handed weapons. Even when it came to large, two-handed weapons, more often than not, they either dragged them behind them, or held up, propped on their shoulder.

    And if you where to have 2 daggers on your back i'm pretty sure you'd look rather retarded
    Despite what I just stated, one of the most common ways to sheath daggers back in the day, especially amongst the scoundrel types who tried to hide them, was horizontally along the back of their belts.

    Just saying.

    they should make it an option. but the back looks better for weapons that have any length to them

    Over the back is so cool, especially for weapons that cross like the ZG swords or ICC axes. Almost wish it was an option to hide daggers, the two glow-sticks attached to my hips makes me feel like I'm at a rave.

    I wish they had an interface option to allow you to sheathe 1h maces / axes / swords on either your back or waist.

    Till then I'll continue to DW my Frost Giant's Cleaver and Thunderfury

    aah, the good old TBC days! Dual wielding this http://www.wowhead.com/item=23542

    I voted back for sure, it's just pure awesome! Maybe not maces or daggers. And whoever said fists would look ugly on the back... you can't see them when sheated anyway, it's a fist weapon D:

    It would be nice for a start to show fist weapons SOMEwhere when "sheated".

    Are you sure u used this AXE on a ROGUE back in TBC? )

    Anyhow, i think it looks cooler for larger and thin weapons to be on your back, smaller on your waist.
